A potential complication in the use of monoclonal antibodies: inhibition of apoB-mediated receptor binding by an anti-apoE antibody.

Monoclonal antibody (Mab) 1D7 is specific for human apolipoprotein (apo) E and blocks binding of lipid-associated apoE to the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor. We report here that 1D7 can also block the binding of apoE-free LDL to the LDL receptor. The inhibition of LDL-receptor binding is not...
